Hello All
I could use some help with choosing the right ILD for a latex mattress. I am a side sleeper (sleep with my arm under pillow and my head on top) When I sleep on my right side my shoulder and my rib cage along with my lower back ache most of the day. If I sleep on my left side the same pains on that side. I am 5' 8" 200lb(50 years old btw) I think I have read enough that I believe talalay latex is what I need. I was thinking of ILD of about 29 in 6 inches with a 2 inch topper of 20 ILD. Maybe I am way off the mark here but am trying my best to guess at whats correct for me. I have bought two new mattresses in the last few years (one pillow top-current and before that one a plush that was not as bad as the pillow top but still not great) I'm begging for help Thank you for any help anyone can give me Dane This message was modified Jan 27, 2011 by MrDane

Well I have went to the mattress stores and layed on a half dozen or so. They do not say what the ILD is though, just firm, med. or soft. I have been shown a site where you can buy latex in a few different ILD's. Bases of 29 or 36 ILD and toppers of 20 or 29 ILD. Also I have read where some have put a memory foam topper of 5.5 lb.on top of latex bases. I am considering building my own possibly. |
